Insights and dashlets display data that you’re interested in tracking on your vintrace Dashboard.
Insights provide a way for you to compare specific values with values in the past so that you can see how your business is performing. They let you foresee potential problems so that you can address them.
For example, you can view the current quarter’s production loss and compare it to the same quarter from last year. With insights, you can see how sales are tracking from one month to the next, or how this year’s harvest tonnage compares with last year.
You can add the insights that you need, then control what data it displays by specifying filters and other configuration options. You can also rename the insight, change its position, or refresh its data.
